There has been a lot of discussion on Wikipedia about this in recent months. Strictly speaking you can, but in practice there are a lot of problem that arise and which might put you in a bad position. The main concern is that it is hard to be neutral in what you add to the article when you need to satisfy your employer's needs, and if changes are not neutral your alterations will be removed. Instead of making changes directly, the recommended approach is to suggest changes on the talk page of the article - you will find that via the "talk" tab at the top of each page. You may also wish to talk to the people at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cooperation|Wikiproject:Cooperation]], who offer assistance to those who are editing articles related to their employment, and the project has a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cooperation/Paid Editor Help|help page]] you can turn to.
